Is 2 ml of Zinnat 250 mg/5 ml suspension not enough for a child weighing 13 kg?

Hello, the son of a vase of 13 kg, received Zinnat 250mg / 5 ml. One dose is 2 ml. (twice a day) Isn't that not enough? The child has bacterial inflammation which resulted from blood tests in an unspecified place.

The recommended dose of Zinnat is between 10 mg/kg (no more than 125 mg) and 15 mg/kg (no more than 250 mg) twice a day, depending on: • severity and type of infection • weight and age of the child. Taking into account this range, a child weighing 13 kg can receive from 125 mg (should be 130 mg with a reservation of 10 mg / kg, but the manufacturer stipulates that no more than 125 mg) to 195 mg of the drug twice a day, which in terms of ml of suspension is from 2.5 ml to 3.9 ml twice a day depending on the severity and type of infection. Please note that your doctor has the best knowledge of your child's health and may reduce your daily dose if he or she deems it appropriate for safety or other considerations.
